[@Damsel_In_Distress_528]

What do you feel is Chopin's saddest piece?

Probably this one kzbin.infot62S-VBHXnM?si=wiefQA_fbXlyGkH9

Looks like my comment got held for review because I sent a link. I would probably say Chopin's prelude op 28 no 24. But sadly I haven't encountered a good full recording of the piece.

Probably this one, op10no3 and op48no1. Also this piece sounds very nice on that piano!

Your performance of Chopin’s Nocturne No. 20 is breathtaking, an absolute masterclass in emotion and technical brilliance. You captured the bittersweet soul of the piece so perfectly that I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve listened to it. That left-hand phrasing? Flawless. Thank you for sharing such pure artistry.

Haha, you flatter me. Thank you I'm glad you found my playing of this piece so evocative as this was an emotional piece for me to play. Do you have a favorite piece of classical music or perhaps a favorite composer?

@@Damsel_In_Distress_528 Beethoven’s Piano Sonata No. 8, holds a special place in my heart. The Adagio cantabile movement, in particular, is breathtaking with its heartfelt and lyrical beauty. I find the whole sonata so evocative, from its intensity to its tenderness, it never fails to move me deeply. Your ability to bring emotion to life through music would undoubtedly make this piece even more special. Have you ever played it before?

Beethoven's Sonata No. 8 really is breathtakingly graceful. I seem to have a soft spot for Adagios, so I understand your sentiment. I've never played it before, but I've heard it many times. Maybe one day I'll learn it.

@@Damsel_In_Distress_528 Adagios truly have an extraordinary way of reaching deep into the soul, don’t they? They’re like whispers of emotion, carrying profound beauty with a timeless grace, it’s impossible not to feel their magic. I sincerely hope you decide to learn the Pathetique someday. I know your interpretation would be absolutely breathtaking. And if you do, please share it with us on your channel, it would truly mean the world.
